I'm sure Crowe is a kiwi, not an aussie.

My script would stick with the original theme "Gladiator", more romance between the main characters and some romance between Gladiators and peasants,(Never once saw another Gladiator being kissed in the 1st Gladiator), or maybe a huge romantic plot with the main characters friend and, it would only go as far as being favored by the gods instead of this bull**** about him being immortal, otherwise Romans would most possible be in control still

Hey, I just listened to the podcast, it was really great. Marc builds up a pretty lively and engaging rapport with the seemingly dark and cold Nick Cave. It was pretty fascinating and hilarious. And he was being facetious about the "stone cold masterpiece" business. It's not the arrogant remark the pull quote makes it out to be.

"so they send Gladiator back to kill Christ and his followers" – so it was the prequel to Prometheus…

Why can't they just go with the original Gladiator 2 script where Maximus becomes kind of an immortal war god and we see him travel through all the great wars in time. It'd be like the beginning of Wolverine Origins but WAY better.

Hmmm? Christ was killed during the reign of Tiberius. He was followed by Caligulia, Claudius, Nero, and quite a few more by the time we got to Commodius.

I saw Nick Cave live in Sydney during a panel interview after a screening of The Proposition. He kept saying how much easier screenwriting is than making music. Even if he's right, he was pretty smug and arrogant about it. I'm not a fan of his personality.

If you can track it down, I highly recommend reading the script or at least an overview because it's actually quite thoughtful. You may be dismissive of the "ending in a men's bathroom in the Pentagon," but that's out of context. The idea of the scene is that the movie ends with Maximus constantly being reincarnated as an instrument of war, so the story ends with him at the sink, looking at his reflection (or perhaps it's a close-up on his face; I don't recall the specifics), and thus driving home the notion that the war never really ends. All that changes is the setting.
